About

Originally released on the Classics for Pleasure label, the issuing of this CD will mark the first time these tracks have been commercially available for over 20 years. The twelve madrigals presented here were deliberately chosen to show off the scope of the best English madrigal writing around the year 1600. Do I regret not having done more of this repertoire in the intervening years? I would, if there hadn’t been so much first-rate sacred music to explore.” Peter Phillips
This unique album, the only recording by The Tallis Scholars of English Madrigals and their first-ever digital recording, was made in the Great Hall at Deene Park, Northamptonshire, on April 23rd, 24th and 25th, 1982.
Bonus tracks (Thomas Tomkins works with the exception of 'Woe is me') – Anthems & Sacred Madrigals recorded in Salle Church, Norfolk, on July 18th, 19th and 20th, 1988.
